ANDthis week starts with a marked relief in fuel prices, such as the News to Minutes he went firsthand. The reduction should take place for both diesel and petrol.
The estimates point to a reduction of nine cents per litre in the case of diesel fuel and a drop of 11,5 cents per litre in the case of petrol, confirmed source of sector News to Minutes.
The Automobile Club de Portugal (ACP) estimates an even more pronounced reduction: minus 11 cents in diesel and minus 12.5 cents in gasoline.
“ If the forecasts for next week are confirmed, the average diesel price will fall to EUR 2,095 per litre and gasoline will fall to EUR 1,876 per litre,” notes the ACP, which still leaves the exception: “This forecast consists of average values based on raw material prices at the closing of last Thursday’s markets. That is, if there are fluctuations in crude and fuel prices by the end of Friday, there may be some price variation from the expected”.
This fall in the price of diesel and petrol will reflect the drop in the price of oil on international markets, which has occurred over the past week.

The government will maintain support to compensate farmers for the increase in fuel prices, with an additional financial allocation of EUR 15 million, has been announced. Support for consumption in July and August will be paid in October.
“The government will strengthen the extraordinary support to compensate for the increase in fuel costs in the agricultural and forestry sectors, ensuring an additional financial allocation of EUR 15 million for the consumption of coloured and marked diesel”, reads a note from the Ministry of Agriculture and Sea.
This concerns the maintenance of the exceptional support of 10 cents per litre applied to coloured and marked diesel by the end of the year.
As required, the burden on this measure, for the agricultural and forestry sectors, will be borne by the centralized allocation of the Ministry of Finance.
As of October, support will be paid at the end of the second month following consumption.
The Autonomous Regions will also receive additional support of up to €1.25 million for the Azores and €250,000 for Madeira.
